Please suggest easy snack idea for meeting

[Anonymous]

I don't know why I'm so uninspired! Would love to hear thoughts:

8-10 women at my home for community meeting.
1:30 - 3:30 pm.

We'll be in the living room so I don't want to get complicated with plates and silverware. Not serving lunch but need to have something.

Any ideas?

Individual bags of nice popcorn, cookies they can grab with napkins, lemonade and iced tea

Cheese and crackers

Charcuterie board with crackers, olives, veggies and hummus, mini cookies or brownies,

I’d offer fruit, cookies or muffins, water, seltzer and a pot of decaf. This is post lunch and pre dinner.

I would put out small paper plates and napkins with most foods aside from a bowl of chips.

I would want a napkin with chips. They are greasy.

1 bite quiches

Not chips. They are too messy.

Keep it simple and just put out a bowl of nuts or M&Ms. No need to provide anything substantial for a short meeting.

You could look at like you would a meeting in office. People are sitting around eating snacks unless it's a designated lunch meeting.

I might provide bottled water and coffee, maybe a third easy choice for drinking and no food at all.

If you want to have food, then one bite things that you can pick up easily with fingers or are already stuck with toothpicks, that don't drip or crumble, with napkins. Drinks in the kitchen or on table to retrieve.

In a meeting it is hard to lean forward to retrieve things, and you don't want things that are greasy or messy. Or disrupt the meeting.

For a 2 hour meeting at that time of day, I’d offer something light but not too junky:

Coffee, tea
Water, seltzer
Small bags of skinny pop, pretzels, and/or trail mix
Mixed fruit

I’d go to Trader Joe’s and pick out a variety of sweet and salty snack items that are pick up/bite size and not messy. Put them in individual servings in little clear cups.

It's a two hour meeting. I'd put out M&M's or some other candy and some almonds, plus crackers, cheese, grapes and water (still and sparkling). I could do that for $50 and less than a half hour of work.
